Someone's extra happy with the proposed rail network expansion

ST Electronics to be well poised to benefit from Singapore’s push for rail network expansion.

Here's more from Maybank Kim Eng:

Beneficiary of rail network expansion. The recent push by the government to improve Singapore’s rail transport network, topped off with the announcement of the Thomson Line MRT project, would serve to benefit ST Electronics through its MRT-related contract capabilities.

Although the Thomson Line  is only slated for completion within a longer 8-10 year horizon, this provides earnings visibility in terms of ST Electronics’ project pipeline continuing on from the current Downtown line works which comes on-line in stages from 2013-2017. 

Based on its recent contract wins and an illustration of its comprehensive suite of MRT-related capabilities, we believe ST Electronics to be well poised to benefit from Singapore’s push for rail network expansion. Add to that its significant competitive dvantages in the market which we detail on the following page, ST Electronics should prove to be one of the ST group’s more stable earnings contributors.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
